   About Dirtfoot
Dirtfoot - a Dose of Gypsy Punk Country Grumble boogie.

"Here’s their deal: Imagine Nick Cave on a bed of rusty nails, the cover of “Gin and Juice” often mis-attributed to Phish (it was actually the Gourds), some old-timey “Dem Bones,” Old Crow Medicine show culture-clash, and that subtle fecal stench of Mr. Bungle skronk sax craziness: Get theses elements, let them stew in an oaken barrel for a number of years and out comes Shreveport, Louisiana’s Dirtfoot." - Spencer, Synthesis.net

Whether performing on big stages at festivals, or playing intimate setting in pubs and the finer taverns all over the mid west & south, Dirtfoot puts on an uproarious show. The crowds come to take part in the fun and chaos, hollering to all the calls and responses, shaking their beancans, and getting down with the infectious grooves. There is only one Gypsy Punk Country Grumble Boogie band in the land… Dirtfoot.

Led by the organic writings of Matt Hazelton with each player adding his own flavor and feeling to the songs and sound of the group, Dirtfoot is a blend of eclectic styles as well as diverse personalities. All of their instruments are acoustic but their energy and ingenuity will make you swear they are plugged in. Featuring instruments ranging from an acoustic guitar, banjo, upright bass, pots n' pans, drums, bells, saxophone, xylophone and more, this band has a truly engaging sound, a real dose of Gypsy, Punk, Country, Grumble Boogie! It is like a good gumbo - you have some growling vocals, upright bass and percussion that makes a good, dark, dirty Louisiana roux, mixed heartily with some meaty rhythms, combined liberally with fresh offerings from the guitar and banjo that are like okra and tomatoes picked from your backyard garden, topped with the hot n' sexy spice of the saxophone and jazz style drums, and finally a little something magical and indescribable, and you have Dirtfoot - a delicious, spicy, dirty band that will make you stomp your feet, shake your ass and yell like a lunatic on a full moon night.

We are looking for people to go online and post Earthdance Austin info on all of your favorite blogs and forums. Tell all your friends and get this grassroots effort going.

This being the first year, it is harder to get the word out. Please send us your email address to get on the mailing lists, then send out those newsletters to everyone you know. If all of our friends on here did this we could get the word out to over a million people.

Bands and Performers, Please add us to your top friends and put up the poster, let everyone know you are performing at Earthdance Austin and that you want them to come out and support you.

We are working on the new newsletter now. If we sell 500 tickets before July 15th, we can have Kevens (headline for Burning Man) and Ky- Mani Marley. We need your help in order to get this done though.

Give Peace a Dance my friends and do something great for our local charities.

Tickets are still on sale for $75 until July 15th.

This includes 3 days of camping, 60+ bands, Eco Friendly Workshops, Healthy Living Workshops, dj's, live PA's, Fire performers, KIDZ Village, Belly Dancers, Drum Circles, Artists Village, great food and much much more.
